[Gary Mitchell]

Rest in peace Mr. Weaver. You were a class act.

 

[Greg Cox]

See also THE TWILIGHT ZONE, DEEP SPACE NINE, CREEPSHOW, and THE LEGEND OF LIZZIE BORDEN . . . and those are just some of his more notable credits . ....

I actually saw him in the wild once, strolling down the sidewalk outside my old Greenwich Village apartment.

Great actor, never forget his original Twilight Zone episodes among countless other work.

[Mr. Laser Beam]

He was on an early episode of Law & Order where he played a rich businessman who has a guy mugged to "donate" a kidney for his ailing daughter.

I'll never forget what Ben Stone said to the daughter (who doesn't want her dad prosecuted because she thinks he's not a violent man) at the end of the episode:

"Do you really think your father would have acted any differently, if you had needed a heart instead of a kidney?"

Oh, how sad. I just watched Twilight Zone's Third From The Sun on Thanksgiving. R.I.P Mr. Weaver. Thank you for the decades of acting and entertainment. You will be missed, Sir.

R.I.P. Mr. Weaver

He's actually one of the few actors to do episodes of both the 1960s and 1980s Twilight Zone series. I'm not sure if he did the 2002 show since I was unable to last through that series pilot episode.

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

^ No, Fritz was never in the 2002 version.

 

[J.T.B.]

So many great performances, and an unforgettable face. Fail-Safe is the first one I think of, so good as the proud and ashamed colonel. Sorry to hear he's gone.
